I guess I was out of shape

I usually work out at home on the treadmill and use the bowflex. I thought I was in pretty good shape. I was wrong.

Today I went to a local gym and tried a group class. Now I'm dead. I can barely walk up the stairs.

it doesn't mean you are unfit. your body gets used to the same exercise and adjusts to it. it's recommended that you change things up now and again to challenge yourself so your body doesn't become complacent.

i go pretty often but i nearly always get doms afterwards because i either do something different or make it heavier, harder.

good job for going!

You're supposed to feel that way. It gets easier the more you do it, i promise. Good job!

Alone, none of the exercise were that difficult. Together, they kicked my ass. After the first interval I thought it would be cake, after the fifth...not so much.

And I've never planked before. The goal is 3 minutes and 40 seconds? Yeah.....not even remotely close.

I get murdered at the boxing gym the first week back. It's like picking yourself up off the ground into a new body, new life each time for the first few sessions.

I am sore but it's a good sore.

I definitely will keep going.

I went for more social reasons but left feeling like a fat ass.
